AustraliaThe hostel has an amazing location, near to everything. Friendly and helpful staff. The kitchen is spacious, and also have a comfy tv room. The room was spacious too. There is a lift to move around the building.
ChileThe staff was super nice. Room and toilet was super clean! The best location! Right near the famous ice cream you must try and train station 😍
TaiwanThe staff was so friendly and kind! Good location to explore in CBD. Facility is clean. highly recommended!!!
JapanThe hostel was in a great and central location for exploring all parts of Melbourne easily by foot, tram, or train. I stayed in the 4 bed female dorm, and the room was pretty spacious, and had spots for your things in the bathroom which was a big bonus. It was great for going to the Aus Open, and the rooms were pretty clean as well. Great value considering all that.
